VINTAGE AND MODERN FURNITURE - AS STATEMENT PIECES

Dear All

My apology to  those who could not get hold of the Vitra chairs that I posted last.  We only have 6 pieces and they were all taken up within the same day of posting. Were they originals? Some asked, while contemplating.  Yes, they were!  I notice there is a great interest in contemporary designers' furniture, of course at our bargain prices. They make great statement pieces, don't they?  Good vintage pieces, make great statement pieces too, by virtue of their age, fine workmanship and recollected memories inherent in the pieces.  I'm sure those vintage and designers' pieces that you have lovingly acquired, make great conversation pieces, especially during this season of celebrations and  entertainings.

Below are some of our latest pieces, most of them have been beautifully restored and reupholstered.
